Worcester.
In response to a fictional unsigned article that appeared
in the student publication Wavelength , Chairman Quinn expressed
the condemnation of the Board at such an article, at not only
the subject but also the lack of literary scholarship and the
way that it adversely reflects on the academics at UM/Boston,
on the officials of the Student Activities Committee, and the rep-
resentative of UM/Boston.
In contrast Chairman Quinn praised the composition and
literary style of the letters that the Board received from the ad-
vocates of MASSPIRG.

discussion on three matters that involve other institutions and Report

publications. Trustee Troy then asked if former Trustees from Boston
State would be invited to Commencement and was told that they
would be. He also asked for a clarification on the exchange pro-
gram.

The meeting was convened at 2:05 p.m. Chairman Knowles UM/Worcester —
called for discussion of Helicopter Medical Transport Service — Helicopter
UM/Worcester. Medical Trans-
port Service
Chancellor Tranquada said that the actions of the Public (Doc. T82-
Health Council in approving the UMass Medical Center proposal and 015A)
rejecting the Boston University/University Hospital proposal, had
caused a rethinking of the UMass Worcester proposal. The service
would be state-wide, rather than confined to the central and
western parts of the state.
The results of this change are generally positive — fixed
costs would remain the same; any increases in operating costs
would be minimal; and the cash flow, because of increased occu-
pancy in the Teaching Hospital, would become positive in year
two rather than year three.
Trustee Costin said he still was of the opinion that an
alternative method of providing the service — e.g., cooperation
with the State Police or the National Guard — was preferable to
the proposal being discussed; this because of the cost factor.
However, he would agree to a one-year approval of the proposal.

There was then some discussion of the Emergency Capital Out-
lay — UM/Boston. Because of the Boston State merger it would be
necessary to renovate some of the classroom space on the Harbor
Campus and also to temporarily make full use of the tower building
on the Huntington Avenue Campus. It was moved, seconded and
VOTED : It is the intent of the Board of Trustees
that the University of Massachusetts at
Boston shall operate, in the main, at two
locations — the Harbor Campus and the Down-
town Center — however, the Board will not,
in achieving this goal, imperil the educa-
tion and well-being of the students pre-
sently enrolled at the University; therefore,
the Board approves the Emergency Capital
Outlay Request contained in Doc. T82-053
and asks the Legislature to acknowledge
the need of the University to be allowed
the full and exclusive use of the Tower
Building on Huntington Avenue until such
time as renovations to the Harbor Campus
and the Downtown Center necessary to meet
its legislatively mandated goal, have been
completed.
The Board then discussed the Tuition Waiver Policy for em-
ployees, spouses and dependent children. It was the request of

cussions of including union members without first bargaining the
issue. He also gave a brief report on how the tuition waiver has
effected other institutions financially, as requested by Trustee
Costin. Following reports from faculty and union representatives,
it was recommended that the Tuition Waiver Policy be returned to
the Committee on Budget and Financial Affairs to be reported on at

James B. Krumsiek
The untimely and unexpected death of James B. Krumsiek on June 20,
1982, shocked his many friends at the University. During his term
as a Trustee, from 1977 to 1981, his dedication to the University
and the conscientiousness with which he approached his duties en-
abled him to make many contributions to the welfare of the insti-
tution. In his role as Chairman of the Ad hoc Committee on Labor
Relations he was an ever-reliable guide during a very troubled
time. His sage counsel as a member of the Committee on Budget and
Finance and the Committee on Student Affairs was always given
without stint. And he was a man of unannounced kindness to Anyone
who sought his help.
The Trustees express to his wife Helen, and to his sons James,
C
David, Stephen and Michael, their sincere condolence.

The Chairman noted that there would be further business with
the Nominating Committee later in the meeting.
The Chairman then welcomed John T. Sweeney to his first Board
meeting as a Trustee. It was agreed that Trustee Sweeney would
discuss the matter of his committee assignments with the Secretary.
(After the meeting Trustee Sweeney told Secretary Keyes that he
wanted to serve on the Budget and Financial Affairs Committee.
Chairman Quinn approved the appointment).
Chairman Quinn then asked if there were any additions or
changes to the minutes of the previous Board meeting. There were
none and it was moved, seconded and
VOTED: To approve the minutes of the October 6,
1982 meeting of the Board.
The Board then heard the Chairman *s report. Noting that his
term has been extended to 1987, Chairman Quinn said that reports
in a Boston newspaper to the effect that he had some sort of on
going rivalry with Governor-elect Dukakis and this rivalry could
work to the detriment of the University were without foundation.
He assured the Board that both he and the Governor-elect were
dedicated to the betterment of the University.
President Knapp, in his report said that there were three
bills now being considered in the Legislature of interest to the
University. One would establish a quasi-public educational tele-
communications corporation, which, though not part of the Univer-
sity, would be housed in its property. The second would authorize

mistic abc'jt the prospects of the special capital outlay to reno-
vate 100 Arlington Ltreet.
The President then noitrd that tvD UM/Amherst foc-tball players
were the recipients of three of the most prestigous avrards in the
Northeast — Gary Pearson won the Harry Agannis Award and the Bulger-
Lowe Award; Bobby Ross won the George Nason Award. (Later in the
course of the meeting it was agreed that they should receive let-
ters of commendation.)
The President concluded his remarks by noting that interest
in higher education in the Commonwealth was increasing. The
people could now see the correlation between higher education and
the economic health of the state.
Chancellor Duffey said that firm enrollment data indicated
that freshmen applications were up 15%, to 13,375; 44.5% of these
applicants accepted. The Chancellor then noted the dedication of
the Furcolo Building, named after former Governor and Trustee
Foster Furcolo, and the opening of the Robert P. Lawrence Horse-
back Riding Arena. The Arena was paid for entirely by private
donation. Robert P. Lawrence, Class of 1922, a veterinarian in
New Jersey, was a substantial contributor to the fund drive.
The Chancellor concluded his remarks by noting that both
Chairman Quinn and Governor-elect Dukakis had visited the campus
and that contributions to the Engineering capital campaign came
to $447,000 for the year.
Chancellor Corrigan then spoke of activities at the Boston
campus. The William Joiner Center for Vietnam veterans and the
study of the Vietnamese conflict had been opened. Six students
at the College of Public and Community Service had banded to-
gether to write and produce a radio program on "workfare," that
is, a proposal that mothers on welfare agree to accept employment
in order to continue to receive benefits, which program had re-
ceived national recognition. Also, the search for a Dean of the
College was nearing completion. Chancellor Corrigan concluded by
noting that he would bring a recommendation to the next Board
meeting regarding the establishment of a department of education
and a department of nursing.
